Zul and Mel were truly fantastic hosts - very relaxed and generous. We were lucky enough to stay with them for about 2 weeks but would have happily stayed much longer. Mel is an amazing cook and we were spoilt with traditional food everyday. It really felt like a home away from home with Mamma Mel!
